142.6…A Home For Bland Food

Before it was time to cook dinner last night, I enjoyed a glass of wine while relaxing on the couch.

Last night’s recipe sounded good: Chicken and Mushrooms in a Garlic White Wine Sauce. As I was preparing it, it seemed to need a little “oomph” so I doubled the garlic, added extra salt and pepper and so on.

Boring. Bland. Oh well. It did help when I added extra parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes to it. During the boring meal, I was concerned about what to do with the leftovers. I hate wasting food but I knew that I wouldn’t want to eat it any other time. I had a bright idea! I texted my friend Lisa if she wanted it. No…this isn’t being mean or being a bad friend. Lisa LOVES bland food! She thinks mashed potatoes are spicy. No joke. She loves my bland food. And guess what…she was more than happy to take it. :)

This morning’s breakfast was comforting and delicious (unlike last night’s dinner).

Scrambled egg beaters with shredded cheddar cheese and a piece of toast.

I went to spin class, did stuff around the house and made lunch. Tuna sandwich and grapes.

I took my son to boy scouts and spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing. Oh…I did bake “Crack Brownies” for a party we are going to tonight. I also ate one to make sure it was ok. It was. :)

haha that worked out! ;) I hate when you oomph up the flavor and everything and it still ends up a little meh! I find its most common with past dishes too -- but if you double/triple the veggies with all the adjustments, and decrease the pasta and such -- it works like a charm! <3 at least for my weird self
